Needle threading should be possible when the needle holder bottom surface and hook holder bottom surface

The hook left-right direction reference position should be at the needle hole center. (The clearance between the
hook and the left and right of the needle hole should be the same.)

The clearance between the hook and top end of the needle hole should be 0-0.1 mm.
